Application

m-Tolidine serves as an essential component in the creation of polyimide and epoxy resin materials. This compound, which appears as pink particles capable of forming prisms when exposed to water, is soluble in cold water, alcohol, and ether. A notable characteristic of m-Tolidine is that it does not produce any color in the presence of iron(III) chloride. Its primary role lies in its ability to be tetrazotized with nitrite and acid, which enables it to couple and form dyes, a process historically important in the production of azo dyes.
